288-Viking Sagas: The Pillage People

🧙‍♀️So, you think your stepmom might be a sorceress🧙‍♀️ Common problem. Well, common for fairy tales, at least. But, have you thought that she might not like you putting her in a box and deciding what she is before you even get to know her? It's something you might want to think about. Definitely because you shouldn't be prejudiced. Also because if she's really a sorceress do you really want to make her mad?😈 The Creature: IpupiaraA hairy, smelly merman who's just trying to keep up with the trends.(Picture: https://myths.link/427)---Links:Norse myth/legends episodes on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3djcC7s1vLSQVHfln7GRWg?si=iUmFY80jRbeo4xYegNfU5wNorse myth episodes by episode post: https://myths.link/427Source: http://www.mythfolklore.net/andrewlang/227.htmMembership: https://www.mythpodcast.com/membershipFictional season 6 is out!: https://fictional.fm/subscribeDiscord: https://myths.link/discordInstagram: https://myths.link/instagramBluesky: https://myths.link/blueskyYouTube:https://myths.link/youtube---📢 SponsorsWayfair: Get organized, refreshed, and back on track this new year for WAY less.

🧞‍♂️Trying to meet the love of your life? Maybe ask for help from two genies trying to kill each other.🧞‍♂️ Even if you're not trying to meet the love of your life or, like the characters in today's story, actively trying to avoid meeting the love of your life because you really don't want to marry, you still might end up falling for someone anyway. And then maybe dying of a broken heart because that's apparently actually a thing.😈 The Creature: Ebu GogoThey will take your stuff and your children...and then ask the children how to cook themselves because no one wants to eat raw children, not even hairy monsters with (maybe) dog teeth.---Links:Disclaimer: https://myths.link/426Membership: https://www.mythpodcast.com/membershipFictional season 6 is out!: https://fictional.fm/subscribeDiscord: https://myths.link/discordInstagram: https://myths.link/instagramBluesky: https://myths.link/blueskyYouTube:https://myths.link/youtubeLong source: https://www.gutenberg.org/cache/epub/52564/pg52564-images.html#Page_212---📢 SponsorsQuince: Go to https://quince.com/legends for free shipping on your order and 365-day returns.BetterHelp: This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

🧌We've all been there.🧌 You spend a night out with friends, hanging out in the dark forest, crashing an ogre party and making dog friends. The only problem? You were out past curfew.
